The room was not more than twelve by fourteen feet, and it's walls were hung with card-sizsd pho tographs of counterfeiters.

KANSAS AND PROHIBITION.

It having been asserted that one city in Kansas had retrograded since the abolition of it's saloons, Governor John A. Martin comes to the front and says that ''the most wonder full era of prosperity, of material, moral and intellectual development, of growth in coun- try, cities and towns ever witnessed on the American continent has been illustrated in Kansas during the six years since the tenn perance amendment to the constitution was adopted" In support of this sweeping as sertion, implying that these things are due to prohibition, he gives some figures. In 1880 the population was 996, 900. Now it is esti- mated at 1,600,000. In 1880 there were 3,100 miles of railroad. Now there are 6,029 miles, The assessed value of real and per sonal property in 1880 was only $160, ,000, GOO. Now it is $500, ,0e0, 900. In 1880 there were |, 1915 school houses, 2,514 churches and SAY newspapers. Now there are 8, 800 school houses, $500 churches and TOO newspapers. In 1880 only 55 towns had more than 1, 1,eo0 inhabitants. Now there are more than 200 towns having population in excess of that figure.
 This is interesting and valuable as show ing how Kansas has F'boomed, ," but Governor Martin stretches things when he ascribes the astonishing growth of Kansas to prohibition As the Chicago Herald puts it: Although the prohibitory act went into effect in 1881 it was five or six years before it was generally enforced, and secondly, States and territories having no prohibitory laws have made rela- lively as marked progress. If the Kansas act was not enforced until 1865-6 and if Nebras- ka, for example, is making as rapid strides in advance as Kansas, what value have these figures, which cover five six years when liquor was as free in Kansas as it was any where else! It is now assumed, too, that prohibition is really in force in the State, when, as matter of fact, most of the new counties on the southern and western frontier where the greatest progress has been made of late-have all the saloons they want and a good deal more whisky than is good for them and most of the older counties draw their supplies from the drug stores.
 With high license Kansas would undoubt- edly have prospered as much as she has under prohibition, and the liquor traffic would have been better and more proftsbly regulated.

WASHINGTON SOCIETY LEADER. A Russian Diplomatic Servant Who Hides in a DrOskY.

Washington Letter to Boston Traveller.l
 The recognized leader of society here this
 summer is MT. Greger, the charge d'affaires
 of the Russian Legation and the acting min
 ister in the absence of Baron de Struve. MT.
 Greger is a medium-sized man with dark
 hair and moustache. He is bachelor and
 immensely wealthy, consequently the ladies
 vote him to be handsome man, but for all
 that he is not bad-looking fellow. Greger
 has captured the town as far as society is
 concerned, and there is no telling when his
 sway will end. It was he who originated
 the paper hunts, into which Secretaries Whitney and Fairchild entered with so much zest, and it was his comfortably filled pock- etbook that provided the costly prizes which were given to the winners under the eye ot Mrs. Cleveland at Grasslands. Greger ls dashing horseman, but he has never won one of his own races yrt, notwithstanding the fact that he owns some of the finest blooded stock in the country. In the city he uses queer vehicle known in Russia as drosky. 1t is driven by an immense brown bearded Russian in blue suit, with strap around his waist and strange-looking cap. Mir. Greger sits behind on single seat in the vehicle, and if he were anything but 8 legation man he would be arrested for fast driving dozen times day. No persons connected with the legations, even the ser wants, can be arrested under the law except | upon warrant issued by the Chief-Justiee of the United States Supreme Court, and l then only for some great crime. In return, our diplomatic officers are similarly protected | in foreign countries. Thus it happens that | the average legation man here can go on good time without the fear that he will wake up in the police-station in the morning, for | the mere production of his card is sufficient l for his instant release by the authorities. I MT. Greger drives through the streets fre~ quently at three-minute gait. and as his { drosky has steel-wire spokes and rubber tires l is makes no noise over the smooth asphalt
 met with no accident of any kind, but no- moment. Greger, aside from being a horses
 man, is the finest swordsman in Washington ! As matter of fact there is not man il 1 town who can even amuse him in that line | A few evenings ago he had 8 contest with 2 l fencing master here, in which he showed the nearest approach to being interested of any l event since his arrival. He has organized | fencing class of his own, composed of quite
 a number of the young bloods of Washing
 ton. They meet every Sunday morning al f the Russian legation, where Q room has
 been specially fitted up for the purpose l and carry on their favorite exercise under | Mr. Greger's tuition. Several of the pupil: are said to have attained remarkable pro- 1 ficiency in very short time. Nearly al l the legation men fence and shoot quite 1 we'll, but none of them equal the Russian As rule they do not keep up their prac' 1 tice in foreign countries, for duelling hal gone out of style here in late years.

 Honah" " is as important in Germany as in some parts of the southern portion of this country. Some time ago German citizen, who had filled the rank of major in the army, who had served with distinction in the war with France, who had been decorated by the Emperor for brave services on the field, but who had resigned his military position, saw fit to stand as Liberal candidate for the Prussian parliament. In the course of his canvass his political opponent made certain public charges against him which reflected adversely upon his bravery and honor as a gentleman and soldier. In reply the ex- officer brought suit for libel against his rival, and succeeded in making him apologize and retract his statement. But the matter having been brought to the attention of prominent army officers, what was termed a court of honor was appointed by the military officials, with the result that the court re- commended to the war office that the majors name be struck from the army rolls, and that he be prohibited from using his military title, although he was allowed to retain the deco ration that he had won. If he had murdered his opponent all would have been we'll.

 A Presbyterian clergyman of Pittsburg in
 trying to "bring the pulpit nearer the peo- pie" makes some rather extraordinary eff forts. He has already preached on the sub
 ject 'Damn It, ;" and he advertises to follow it up with sermons on the following live
 topics: 'How is the Scorea' ''He Held an
 Ace Full?" 'tHow was the Showa" 'FWho
 is the New Girl? Has She Just Struck the
 City?' s'Let us Have Game of Poola"
 s'Are You Trying to Make Mash?'
 A great many people want to know why
 the price of their stocks has gone down, even if the knowledge wouldn't make them feel any better. R. G. Dun & Co. make 8 sug- gestion which is worth attention. They say: If the country has in six months invested 1 $400, ,000 in new buildings, $100, 900 l more in developing southern manufactures and mines, besides cost of buildings, and as much more in the rest of the country, and $1oo, 1000, ,000 in new railroad building, it can ! not have an unlimited sum ready to employ l in lifting prices of securities.
 I Many great men have died lately, and | some of those who are alive don't feel very | we'll. A medical paper remarks that Em- l peror William is suffering from advancing years, the crown prince from 8 laryngeal
 papilluma, and Bismarck from rheumatism; I MT. Gladstone has catarrhal troubles in his | respiratory organs; Sir Michael Hicks Beach 1 has cataract Mir. Parnen has some unknown
 malady which makes him an invalid; Lord Randolph Churchill married an American l lady and has the (allege0 American disease' l neuralgia; Mir. Blaine is reported to be 1 Brightique; Mir. Manning is hemiplegic; President Cleveland is rheumatic and lipo-
 matosic; the Emperor of Russia is suffering
 from mental depre ssion.
 1 Mrs. Langtry was not the first alien woman I to become 8 citizen of this country. Judge l Thomas Moran of Chicago, the associate justice of the Appellate court, says that his I mother, native of Ireland and subject of
 Great Britain, took out papers and became a
 naturalized citizen of New York State as far
 back as 1886 or 1887. He says that prior to l the adoption of the Revised Statutes, about | 1880, an alien could not inherit or hold title to land in New York. My mother" he said, '' came here as child, and her father | acquired property in New York. It was I probably to enable her to retain her right and | title on this that she became naturalized
